澳大利亚西悉尼大学植物水分和干旱胁迫研究博士后职位
The Institute is seeking to appoint an energetic academic to a Level A position in the Hawkesbury Institute. This 3-year, full-time, Postdoctoral Fellowship will focus on research related to an Australian Research Council Future Fellowship grant ‘Limits to the resilience of Australian forests and woodlands to drought’.
The central aim of this project is to determine the resilience of Australian forest and woodland plant species to drought, and how future climatic conditions may alter this resilience. This goal will be achieved through a combination of field and laboratory based experimental work undertaken at Australian and international facilities. Key aims of the project include establishing the physiological thresholds of Australian plant species to drought induced injury and understanding the physiological mechanisms by which plants recover from drought. The project will also involve the development of a new generation of sensors for automated and continuous measurements of plant water stress.
The successful applicant will work with Dr Brendan Choat in the Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment and collaborators in Australia, Europe and the USA. Applicants should have expertise in plant ecophysiology, preferably within the field of plant hydraulics and water relations. Familiarity with electronics and deployment of remote sensor is also desired.
